I am a United fan yet this goal is such a technicality. He didn’t touch the ball which is valid by the offside law but he in essence is close enough to make it count as a play and the defenders react to him accordingly. Probably the most gray area in the offside law. Could be valid either way imo but I wouldn’t complain if they chopped that goal either
Would’ve been called offside at the world cup
Obviously offside. How refree dare ???If rashford didn’t run after ball, it’s count.
involved in the play. offsides.
We call this double standard
If the City defender tackled Rashford, the ball would not have been given.
The moment Rashford moved towards the ball, the flag should have been up… Why has it been the norm even through the World Cup that there is a delay in lifting the flag … Allowing the play to continue puts the officials in a bind.
It freaking doesn’t matter he touched or not. Referee is crazy
It’s offside because he run to the ball and made the move…and the ball was sent to him…bad call !!!
Offsides rule changes every week. GGMU LET’S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This is the problem with letting the play finish while a player is offsides. Just go back to how it used to be instead of altering it every season.
Even if it’s offside, you play until the whistle. Ederson and Walker should have still given 100 percent into putting a challenge and making a stop there.
United Fan Here. 100% offside. Akanji would have stepped across and attempted to block Fernandez / possible different outcome.
but we will take win. happens in football + united showed spirit. you have to take the luck, the decisions and its unfortunate that it has to transpire this way
Lmao That’s not a f***ing goal
Manchester United playing with 12 men.
What is the point of VAR though, rashford is clearly running with the ball affecting the play while being offsides. Man U deserved the win but this is 100% against the rules of the game, he’s objectively affecting the play by running with the ball
I think it’s offside but then y they blow whistle till he touches the ball on other offside plays.
Perfect decoy
Glazers handed out some vacation homes for the refs
How is this a goal?
Isnt going for the ball offside. I’ve seen plays like this where the player just stands and the ball rolls pass him forr another striker to put it pass the net and it counts, but here he more than clearly goes for the ball which alters the way they defend.
What is the letter of the law?
By that logic…what’s next tall forwards standing and hoping in front of opposing goalkeepers to obstruct the view … The forward didn’t touch the ball… So the goal should be allowed if it goes in?
Can’t stand Man City but how the heck is that not offsides?
So a player that’s offsides can shield the ball until one of his teammates arrives and as long as he doesn’t actually touch the ball it’s not considered offsides now?
once rashford did his run the flag shouldve went up its common football knowledge
Manchester is Red
ok, i am genuinely confused and lost on why this is a goal.
we all agree Rashford was offsides, no one is disputing that.
the question is, did Rashford interfere in the play. you can argue Rashford didn’t touch the ball
but then is interference only when a player who is offsides touches the ball?
i’ve seen goals disallowed where the offside player didn’t touch the ball, he just in the way and interfered
in the play.
what am i missing here?
Bro look at Ederson. He’s fully prepared for Rashford to take that shot. He even does a fake shot and somehow that’s not offside. Premier league doing their best to keep this league not look like a joke for pep
“clearly attempting to play a ball which is close when this action impacts on an opponent or
making an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an opponent to play the ball”
– FA Law 11
100% an offside based on the FA definition. What were thees refs smoking
Akanji was much closer to the ball than Fernandes, the only reason he doesnt get there before him is because of Rashford.
Se la mamaron! Es fuera de lugar!
play to the whistle, that’s like rule #1 of the game. not much to complain about if you give up mid play.
Nonsense decision
Oh GOD YESSSSSSS!!!!! The salty tears. They sustain me.
The law states that if an offside player moves toward the ball then the flag has to be raised and he’s offside. Manure getting decisions in their favor again. That should have gone to VAR.
Since when i was young I know if you show interest in the ball thats ruled out. Rashford ran with the ball. How on earth did the VAR not rule it out. Linesman knew it
Wtf he was involved in the goal scoring play this shouldn’t have counted!
I always thought "going for the ball" while in an offside position, would deem a player offside. As in, engaging in the play.
I don’t have a dog in this fight (Notts County fan lol) but the PL gets more interesting when teams are closer together in the table.
Offsite!!!
if u think this is a goal, you’re a man united fan, if you dont think this was a goal, you understand ball.
Peter Drury says Rashford "kept his distance" bro he literally didn’t
No way that was a goal Marcus rashford played the play there for offsides
IF HE WASNT OFFSIDE HE SHOULD HAVE STOPED RUNNING. HE INTENTIONALLY FAKES THE SHOT.
If you watch closely walker making the run with Bruno is why this goal is allowed to stand, he never played Marcus so it never made Kyle switch his speed or direction, meaning there’s no interference, ederson also isn’t being impeded because he’s got a clear line of view of the ball and Bruno
Just have the officials make it clear as long as the offside player didnt touch the ball its not off side, easy
